Physiological dormancy and seed germination inhibitors in Miconia (Melastomataceae) [PDF]
Plant Ecology and Evolution, 2013 to the following rainy season, when conditions for seedling establishment are suitable. Germination inhibitors in Miconia fruits indicate that seed cleaning is an important contribution to plant fitness delivered by frugivores.

A unifying, eco‐physiological framework for animal dormancy
Functional Ecology, 2020 Across the tree of life, the term ‘dormancy’ is used to describe physiological adjustments that enhance survival in temporarily hostile environments (Cáceres, 1997; Geiser, 1998; Hand, 1991; Koštál, 2006).

Bulb Dormancy In Vitro—Fritillaria meleagris: Initiation, Release and Physiological Parameters [PDF]
Plants, 2021 In ornamental geophytes, conventional vegetative propagation is not economically feasible due to very slow development and ineffective methods. It can take several years until a new plant is formed and commercial profitability is achieved.

Physiological and molecular mechanisms associated with potato tuber dormancy
Journal of Experimental BotanyTuber dormancy is an important physiological trait that impacts post-harvest storage and end-use qualities of potatoes. Overall, dormancy regulation of potato tubers is a complex process driven by genetic as well as environmental factors.

Physical, physiological and anatomical changes in Erythrina speciosa Andrews seeds from different seasons related to the dormancy degree [PDF]
, 2018 Dormancy, a process that allows seeds to survive in adverse environments, needs to be broken for germination to start, for example, by the disruption of the impermeable layer of seeds.

Physical Seed Dormancy in Legumes: Molecular Advances and Perspectives
PlantsPhysical dormancy of seeds is a form of dormancy due to the presence of an impermeable seed coat layer, and it represents a feature for plants to adapt to environmental changes over an extended period of phylogenetic evolution.

Dormancy Breaking Treatments in Northern Wild Rice ( Zizania palustris L.) Seed Suggest a Physiological Source of Dormancy [PDF]
Plant Growth Regulation, 2021 Abstract Dormancy is a limiting factor for breeding in northern wild rice (NWR; Zizania palustris L). This study developed a dormancy curve and tested a combination of scarification and hormone treatments, across three timepoints, for their ability to break dormancy in NWR and produce viable seedlings and plants.
